Health Information for Medical Professionals in Oklahoma

According to www.americashealthrankings.org, Oklahoma was ranked 43rd in overall health in 2012. The state has increased slightly from 46th in 2011. The life expectancy is 75.6, which is one of the lowest states compared to a national average of 78.7 years.

When it comes to healthcare spending, Oklahoma is ranked 15th, spending an average of $95 per person. Despite healthcare spending, the percentage of people who were uninsured in 2012 was 17.1%. Ranked 35th in the country, the number of people living without insurance has decreased slightly from 18.4% in 2007. The availability of primary care physicians in Oklahoma is the 2nd poorest in the nation, with an average of only approximately 80 PCPs per 100,000 residents, which is considerably lower than the national average of 121.

As of 2010, approximately 16.2% of the adult population is currently living in poverty, which indicates a 1.5% increase since 2000. As for children living in poverty, Oklahoma was ranked 24th with 20.7% of all children living below poverty level, marking a decrease from 25% in just the past year.

Due to a high prevalence of a sedentary lifestyle, Oklahoma is also among the poorest-ranked states for obesity, ranking 45th, with approximately 31.1% of the adult population considered obese, and marking a 4.6% increase in the last decade. The state is ranked 43rd overall for adults living with diabetes (11.1% of the population), suggesting a correlation between obesity and a higher prevalence of diabetes. Among children, the obesity ranking is also high at 42, with 16.7% of the adolescent population considered obese. Oklahoma also has a relatively high prevalence for stroke, with 3.4% of the population having had a stroke (compared to a national average of 2.1%).

With 26.1% of the state “lighting up,” Oklahoma has an exceptionally high prevalence of smoking and is ranked 47th in the nation. In contrast, however, only 16.5% of the population partakes in binge drinking, giving Oklahoma an overall ranking of 12th, however, this marks a 3.5% increase from 2011 alone.

With the strengths being low prevalence for infectious diseases and binge drinking, Oklahoma is still struggling with a high prevalence for smoking, obesity and diabetes and a low availability of PCPs.
